    Needs to be mixed by volume 50/50. Bigger batch mix's help.

    I was told you can wet it with acetone and It'll dry.

    I mixed it wrong once so I just hung the spinnerbait in my garage to dry. Good news is it eventually dried hard. Bad news it took 4 years.

    I use the small syringes for rod building. Helps you get a more consistent mix. You might be able to mix another batch and apply that to the current head. May not work, but at this point you have nothing to lose.
